Description

Attempts to answer the questions of how Abraham Lincoln was affected by women and what effect he had on them. Here the stories have been brought together -- and filled out with newly discovered accounts -- in a fresh, new way that shows their effect on Lincoln’s personality, ambition, and spirit. According to author Winkler, Lincoln’s emotions and motivations were shaped from a mixture of crippling and energizing experiences associated with women -- experiences that profoundly affected both his personal and professional life. The book explores the impact of more than 30 women on Lincoln’s life. Not overlooked are the positive impacts of women on Lincoln and he on them, especially his stepmother -- probably the first person to treat him with respect.
